securing pdf's in databases


  • Subject: securing pdf's in databases

I am creating a program that fetches info and an attachment (PDF) from an email address and stores it into a database. Most of the work is done.

I am now trying to figure out how to make sure the attachment is not accessible from all individuals, since the database runs a webobjects website. The PDF is a invoice from quickbooks that has to be emailed off. I have a program that currently can automatically pull the pdf from the email, insert the file information into a database, and move to the next email. The program does have logic to verify the attachment.

Ideally, i would like to put the pdf's into the database. The program is a java-cocoa application. I dont want customer x to see customer y's invoices and vice versa. If i did this with a database, i could make it work. I dont want the images in a folder sitting on the webserver.

How would I go about doing this? Would I use a BLOB. The PDF files are under 30k each, and database size is not a problem. Is there any other recommended way to do this?

Thanks
